At the age of 16, Maci became
pregnant with her son Bentley. She heard
about a documentary that MTV was developing to show the struggles of teen
pregnancy and submitted her casting tape.
Shortly thereafter, she began filming and on June 9, 2009 Maci's was the
first episode of '16 & Pregnant' to air.
Thanks to the success of the '16
& Pregnant' franchise, MTV decided to expand on the girls stories and the
'Teen Mom' series was born. Maci has appeared
on four seasons of 'Teen Mom', with season 4 being its final season.
Since the inception of '16 & Pregnant' and 'Teen Mom', the teen
pregnancy rate in the U.S. has dropped significantly and Maci feels this is no
coincidence, but that the stories and struggles of four normal teenage mothers
being shared with the world has had a direct impact on those numbers.
In addition to appearing on '16
& Pregnant' and 'Teen Mom', Maci works to educate young people on teen
pregnancy prevention through public speaking engagements and personal appearances
